Imagine if the Human League woke up in Seattle circa 1991, with
a
fistful of trucker speed to sustain them. Imagine if the Gang of
Four's passions extended only to crosswalks, jumpsuits, and
droids.
Imagine Father Guido Sarducci as a garrulous mime and a stalwart
bassist. Imagine a teal-colored wig that looks like a monstrous
feather
duster, perched proudly on the head of one of the most enthusiastic
and
beautiful rhythym guitarists I've ever seen. Imagine music that
dares you
not to start jumping up and down. Rock and roll will never be
boring as
long as there are enterprising and enthusiastic folks like the Tigers
to
keep everyone on their toes. Their hit record Charm City
is a
good place to start hearing their monotone Romper-Room anthems, but you
must see
them live to fully appreciate their strangeness and enthusiasm.
